The 2015 Meursault Clos du Cromin, half the vines planted by the brothers' grandfather 90 years ago, has a slightly muffled bouquet, although it appears to gain clarity with time-developing scents of shucked oyster shells and lemon. There is a lot of horsepower on the palate, a little richer than I was expecting, yet maintaining fine balance, a lovely salinity coming through on the finish that urges you back for another sip. Not as nuanced as the 2014 Clos du Cromin, but this is still a well-made Meursault. Score: 88 - 90 Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2018-2025 05 January 2017 |

The nose shows a more exotic orange zest quality than the Puligny villages but is still tightly coiled and fresh. More noteworthy for structure than fleshiness as its soft citrus fruit flavors are nicely supported by harmonious acidity. The saline finish is chewy without coming across as phenolic.
